Most external enclosures don't have this problem/feature and using one is a good option. Otherwise it'll work and there's no real danger as long as you treat the drive with some care, an anti static bag is a good Idea. If it's formatted NTFS you may have ownership issues trying to read or write to the drive. Usually if you are running with administrator rights it's not much of an issue. |
